Effective June 28, 2024
We are delighted to announce that the ownership of our enterprise has been transferred. Landon Aarstad, a skilled personal trainer and proprietor of Double A Fitness, has taken over as the new owner of Weights & Figures. Congratulations Landon! We wish you much success and thank you for taking this much needed business into the years to come!
(Landon indicated that he will continue running both facilities at their own separate locations. Contact number: 530.708.5364 )
A word to our Members:
We are beyond grateful for your past support and for giving us the opportunity to serve our community of Modoc. Some of you have been with us at Weights & Figures our entire journey of 40 years, and we greatly appreciate your continued business.
With personally first being a member from almost inception of Weights & Figures, to an owner-partner for the last 19 years, then most recent as the sole owners, we can say our journey has been very fulfilling. We have met countless enjoyable individuals and have gained many friendships, both personal and business, along the way.
We are sad that our business relationship has stopped, but our friendships will never end. We are beyond excited for Weights & Figures' next chapter, now in the hands of much younger blood! It was about time for a change, and we think we made the best choice for you, our Membership and the community of Modoc. Like Marty, Landon is a born and raised Modocer with a passion for fitness that runs deep.
Side note:
All Memberships which had been paid in advance (such as our 3, 6 or 12 months packages) are being carried forward, and will be honored under the new owner. We have provided Landon with your name, contact number and remaining months on your package, so no need to worry. You are still set to carry on with your Gym useage without interruption.
With heartfelt thanks to our Members over the years, we greatly appreciate you!
Now... going forward, we'll see y'all in the gym on the flip side (a Member, not as an owner).
